Chapter 108: Confession to You
General Liszt rumbled a few words, as if to defend himself, but no one paid any attention to him.
As they walked forward, the screams and roars grew louder and louder, and they became even more piercing and terrifying in the depths of the dense forest, like an axe tearing through the atmosphere of tranquility, slashing at everyone.
Yin Xinmei couldn't believe that this was the voice of Sang Jie, judging from these shouts, he was no different from a completely insane madman. She was sure that the man was not guilty of having raped him, and that he was so insane that he finally went insane, so what was the matter with him? What was the Blue Bird doing? Why did she not soothe him or stop him?
For the next few steps, the four men did not speak again, and they passed by the tents of the barracks at the col, and along this natural path they came out of the barracks to a not too dense fir forest, when the path suddenly descended and turned sharply to the left at a rock.
This banshee forest is like a labyrinth of rings and rings, how many unknown secrets are hidden here? I feel that all kinds of landscapes from all over the world have converged in this treacherous dense forest, and I am really worried that I will be lost in this ancient and dark forest, and I will never be able to get out of this cobweb-like countless paths for the rest of my life. Hidden eyebrows thought to themselves.
When the four of them came to the bend, they saw that the path led to a flat bottom under a low cliff, and the top was full of trees. There was a closed stone door on the cliff face, hanging crookedly from a thick and heavy iron chain.
The stone gate was flanked by heavily armed Black Iron Army guards, and the roar of the Mulberry Ladder came from behind this stone gate, and if any unsuspecting traveler passed by here, he would surely think that a terrible demon was imprisoned inside.
It was about too long to roar, and it was about to hear footsteps approaching, anyway, the Sang Steps finally stopped, and the heart-rending roar stopped for the time being, leaving only the wailing sound of a gossamer coming from the stone gate.
The Black Iron Guard saluted the four of them, and then opened the stone door, which contained an oval-shaped natural cavern, which was perfect for a temporary prison. Hidden Eyebrows was the third of the four to enter, with Liszt leading the way, Seser second, and Princess Luther last.
The cave was very dark, with only two small torches on the walls, and the air here was as stinking and musty as a grave, and smelled of decay, almost so smoky that I couldn't open my eyes.
After a while, her eyes adjusted to the darkness before her, and she was shocked to find that both of them were bound to long chains at the farthest ends of the cavern, long enough to allow them to move slightly within their respective ranges without stiffening their limbs, and short enough to keep them from touching each other.
As soon as they entered, the bluebird raised his head and glanced at them one by one, his gaze resting on the body of the hidden eyebrow, but if the sangjie—if the creature whose clothes were torn into ragged strips, and whose hair was messed up like a bird's nest, and whose face and body were covered with bloody and terrible scratches and lacerations—did not move his head at all, but whispered a lullaby-like tune to himself in the local language that he had heard in the native language that the hidden eyebrows had heard, and everyone was numb to the ears.
The four of them exchanged glances briefly: it had only been a few hours from the time the blue bird captured Sang Jie until he brought him back to Wei Shengkai's marching camp, how could Sang Jie toss himself into this terrifying appearance of no one and no ghost?
The Blue Bird stood up, her clothes neat and intact, her expression calm as water, and she saluted Sesher respectfully, "Your Majesty." ”
"Say it. The Black Iron Guard outside the door brought a chair to Sether, and he sat down, and the other three people surrounded him, all with serious expressions, like silent standing statues in the night.
"I know that Sang Jie was captured by His Majesty this time, and he must not die well, and His Majesty separated Sang Jie from me to prevent us from contacting each other, and he was also worried about chaos, I fully understand. There was not the slightest hint of excitement in the Blue Jay's tone.
"But you did, you lied to me, and poisoned my guards. Sether said.
"I know you hate Sangjie, his crimes are too numerous to mention, and everyone wants to catch him and kill him as soon as possible. And," Bluebird's voice began to become bitter, but her words were still fluent, and in the darkness, Hidden Eyebrows could see that her eyes were red, but Bluebird did not cry, "and there are many things about Sandai, which you don't know, and I know what kind of person he used to be, because I grew up with him, and I know better than all of you why he is what he is now." ”
"You're not from the League of Twelve, you're from a free state called Ansu, are you?" said Sether.
"Did Your Majesty already know?" said the bluebird.
"No, I didn't know until tonight. ”
Blue Bird's stunned face only lasted for two seconds, and then she showed a look of sudden realization, "Yes." Tonight, Sang Dai was in a frenzy, and had been mad in the native language of Ansu's slaves, and His Majesty was proficient in almost all of the languages of Vilogosa, so he could naturally hear it. ”
"Who brought you out of the slave mines in Ansu, who gave you such a perfect background and identity, and what was the purpose of your infiltration of Viaphant?" Sether asked.
"It's a long story about our backgrounds, and if we continue to talk about it, it may delay Your Majesty's business, and I know that you have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders," Bluebird showed a bitter smile, "So, I have already written a letter on it, and I have written all the details of our past on it." I'm not trying to defend myself or the Santier, I'm just trying to testify to myself with pen and paper. ”
"You poisoned my Black Iron Guard, and the nine soldiers of the previous squad are still in a state of extreme weakness, with no combat effectiveness, and I don't know when they will recover—what do you want to do? You have committed a capital crime, and Your Majesty has every reason to hang you immediately. Liszt exclaimed.
"I know, I did it as a last resort. Blue Bird whispered, "I just want to see Yin Xinmei, and Sang Jie's wants to see her." ”
"You two put me in the most miserable and helpless situation of my life for a while," said Yin Xinmei with a sarcastic sneer, "Say, do you want to confess to me when you see me?" ”
"Yes, I do want to confess to you," to everyone's surprise, Bluebird said, slowly walking towards her brow amid the astonished gazes of the crowd until the chains at her feet grabbed her.
The bluebird knelt down towards the hidden eyebrows.
"Sangjie has gone mad, so I will say it for him-Yin Xinmei, I know that we have committed a heinous crime against you, and I know that we do not deserve forgiveness, but I still want to repent to you, and I still want to pray to you against my conscience: please forgive me and Sangjie. ”
